Hi Ada,

Could you explain how to reproduce the problem?

In particular, are you on Guix System or on a foreign distro?  In the
latter case, is guix-daemon running as an unprivileged user¹ or as root?
What version of guix-daemon is running, as shown by “pgrep -fa
guix-daemon”?

You mention scons, ruby, and go.  Is “guix build scons” enough to
trigger the problem?

Thanks for reporting the problem!

Ludo’.
